I grew up eating from abundantly producing backyard tomato plants and cherry trees. In college, I sought wild blackberry bushes and neighborhood apples and plums. I think the best thing ever invented is fresh strawberry sorbet.

Currently, I am a recent college grad, paying off student debt by growing food. This is my first novel, but I have been writing short stories, poetry, and many many letters for years. I enjoy playing with words, and while I feel they are often inadequate to describe most things, I love to try anyways.

These words and pages are my attempt to share stories, ideas, and conversation about how we all define the word community. I think it’s surprisingly different from person to person. And I think that’s beautiful.

When I am not digging in the dirt or writing, you can find me climbing rocks, drinking tea, or exploring.
